We are pleased with this addition and hope to see this feature option soon. Will we be able to convert columns with address info (currently using multiple lines of text) into a location column?

We don't currently have a way to do this, but can look into it if there is substantial interest

Well, we are very interested. We have several contact lists that have separate fields for street address, city, state and zip and it would be great to be able to simply convert those to location columns based on the existing data.
